The most popular types of stone fireplaces are limestone, granite, marble, slate and travertine, with each bringing a different vibe to the decoration mix. The texture and variety of stone makes it the perfect choice for your home. These mostly solid surface stones typically require more routine maintenance than brick or natural stone fireplaces.

Brick

A brick fireplace adds a touch of tradition and comfort to your home. Brick is one of the most recognized materials used for fireplaces, and with the variety of colors and brick styles, they can be customized to match your design aesthetic. There are several ways for brick to be laid when building a fireplace. They can be arranged in a pyramid shape with a wider base that tapers toward the top or they can be set perfectly on top onf one another to form straight clean lines. They can be continued all the way from floor to ceiling for a dramatic focal point, or they can stop at mantle level for a more traditional effect.

What is flagstone?

Flagstone is any sedimentary rock that can be cut or split into layers to create a flat stone that can be left in natural irregular shapes or cut into regular rectangular shapes to be used for a variety of masonry projects.

Commonly found types of flagstone are bluestone, limestone, sandstone, and volcanic stone. They can be found in a variety of colors ranging from white, brown, orange, red, grey, and gold. As a design element, flagstone offers the option of using a uniform natural color choice or mixing a variety of complimentary colors for a unique design.
